I have three LANs at three physical locations, which I have bridged together using Lynksys WAP11s. This configuration gives me high speed internet access through a single uplink at one of the locations. I have the APs running in bridge mode with 128-bit WEP enabled. I now have the following question: How can I structure my network to have several "virtual LANs" which would allow all users access to the internet portal, but denying users of one "virtual LAN" any knowledge of the existance of nodes (computers) in another "virtual LAN". Is this possible? The only thing I can think of is setting up different workgroups (this is all Winbloze stuff) or NT domains, but I don't know any of the security issues about those features. Something about subnet masks also comes to mind, but those things are still somewhat of a mystery to me. Any advice here would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks,
Eric Foy
